ChunkVisualizer
ChunkVisualizer is a lightweight and powerful Minecraft plugin that allows players to visualize chunk boundaries in real-time without using the debug menu (F3 + G).
It is a perfect companion for Towny or other land-claim systems, as it allows players to see specific chunk edges clearly without cluttering the screen with a global grid.
🎥 Demonstration
1. Dynamic Chunk Tracking
The visualization automatically follows the player when crossing chunk borders, ensuring seamless territory control.
2. Full GUI Customization
Use the /cv settings command to open an intuitive interface that allows you to:
- Toggle visibility with a single click.
- Adjust height of the boundary blocks relative to your current position.
- Change materials used for the visualization.
- Reset all settings to server defaults.
3. Non-Intrusive "Ghost" Blocks
Built using modern packets and Display Entities, these blocks have no collision. They do not interfere with gameplay: you can mine ores or interact with items directly through the visualization.
